Hi, thank you for replying.

ttyS0 is indeed whitelisted in the inmate and the number of pio_regions is 
set accordingly. 

As for the crash after disable/shutdown, I think it was related to the PCI 
device, after commenting that and the corresponding regions out I no longer 
get that freeze. CONFIG_JAILHOUSE_GUEST and 
CONFIG_JAILHOUSE_DBCON were already set in the kernel configuration I'm 
using for the non root linux; still, I recompiled it just in case.

for the first few tries, simply don't load a ramdisk. Try to get the 
kernel booting. It will crash with "cannot mount rootfs". If we get so 
far, then you can continue specifying the ramdisk. But first, we have to 
get that far.

ttyS0, i.e., x86 Port 0x3f8 is whitelisted in the cell configuration? 
Actually, your cmdline is correct.

Okay, is the guest Linux compiled with Jailhouse guest support? Please 
ensure that non-root Linux is compiled with CONFIG_JAILHOUSE_GUEST and 
CONFIG_JAILHOUSE_DBCON. The first one is mandatory for x86 Linux guests.

First things first. Let's try to get Linux kicked off before diving into 
PCI. Comment it out for the moment, let's do that later.
